Now, we have Route 1-13.

Route 1-13 is, to many auditors and to many preclears, one of the goldangest, gee whizzinest things that you ever ran into in your life. It is utterly, utterly phenomenal.

We could probably start a university which would do nothing but fool around with R1-13. That's typical of so many parts of Dianetics and Scientology — you could just go on and concentrate and specialize on these things forever and aye.

R1-13: "Have preclear adjust genetic entity anchor points." That's an interesting process. It's a fabulous process.

In order to start in with this process, we actually have to go into the actual structure of the body.

Now, to tell you about this in fifteen minutes is really not difficult. You would think this is quite something. The genetic entity anchor points. What do we call the genetic entity? Genetic entity simply means that entity which is carrying along through time, that is making the body through the time stream, through the action of sex and so forth: sperm — ovum, embryo, infant, man.

What is the single or many intelligences which go into the actual structure which eventually results in a grown body? Well, that we call a "genetic entity." It isn't a him; it isn't a her. It would simply be the combined intelligences which eventually result in this result.

Now, this could or could not, or may not, include the thetan or awareness of awareness unit. Actually, the awareness of awareness unit probably would not admit his responsibility for making this body from beginning to end, anyhow.

So, the genetic entity might even be the awareness of awareness unit — the thetan. Might even be. We're not interested in whether it is or isn't. We're interested here in structure and with the adjustment of anchor points. Dianetics and Scientology went into structure and disbarred all holds. We're perfectly willing to address the field of structure today, which we were not in 1950. And the reason why we are willing to address structure today is because we know something about structure today. And we were unwilling before because we didn't know anything about it.

And if medicine and psychiatry, and so forth, were to present that conservative attitude toward existence, they would be far better off. They are continually invading the field of structure without having one brain cell to knock against another one on the subject. They don't know anything about it and their courage and adventurousness is something that should be saluted by some of the greater adventurers of history.

We are actually today not being adventurous in Dianetics and Scientology, really. We are holding the conservative line. And we're not like medicine and psychiatry, which are wild, incapable, improbable and so on. If you take that attitude, you fare much better.

They test one case and say, "We've run a series." They test two cases — "We've run a series." And they are perfectly willing — now, get this — they are perfectly willing to treat structure, without knowing a single thing about structure.

Oddly enough, it took electronics and nuclear physics to scout out this thing called structure. What is structure? It depends primarily upon view-point of dimension — the definition of space.

Then if we have viewpoint of dimension, what is it that so arduously holds in position the very structure of the body? It would be something, then, which held in position a certain series of anchor points. Isn't that right? And these anchor points would then give the space of the body, and would demonstrate what part of the body was to be dense and what part of the body was not to be dense. And it would be a problem in anchor points, wouldn't it? — because you have a body walking around and it's occupying a certain amount of space. But it has to create that space for every new position it goes into. So we're looking at a miracle here. But we're also looking at electronics.

Anchor points consist of electronic energy masses, and they are measurable on very, very fine electronic machines. They are measurable. I mean, we're not dealing now with something like a theory. I mean we can reach out with a magic wand and swat these things.

As a thetan, we can go down the street and somebody is tooling along, you know, walking along in perfectly good order, and we just take the upper-right-hand anchor point and let's move it. And he will walk in a circle. He'll wonder what on earth's happened to him. He'll start walking like Leon Arrow. We can do this to anybody.

Dizziness is just a displacement of these things, that's all. How many are there in a body? Millions. How many principal ones? There are about six big ones.

How do you locate them? Well, they vary from the tiniest, tiniest microscopic point of electricity, to huge spheres which look like the gold balls outside of a pawn shop. And these are not visible to the naked eye unless you process somebody in their direction. He begins to go around looking at people's anchor points. This begins to worry him, because he stops seeing bodies and starts seeing anchor points. You very seldom process anybody in this direction.

All right. Where are these anchor points? At every place the body has mobility, you can depend upon it that there are small or large anchor points — those places which we called, in Advanced Procedures and Axioms, "the sub-brains of the body." Remember Advanced Procedures and Axioms, hmm? "Control centers," "epicenters" — remember all that? We're talking about anchor points.

Now, here at the bend of the elbow is an anchor point. Here at the bend of the wrist is an anchor point. Here at the ball of the shoulder is an anchor point. Now, are they the bone? No, they are not. They are an electronic de-posit which permits the bend of that much space. Well, this stuff that's hanging and visible to the naked eye is only there as long as those anchor points are in position.

And if you were to suddenly knock out of existence all the anchor points in an arm, you would create either a complete immobility of the arm or the arm itself would vanish.

Now, let's look this over as nothing esoteric. We're dealing with some-thing like hooking up circuits and putting meters on, and resistors and things like that.

Then, if somebody had a sprain of his elbow, the first thing we would suspect would be that the space of the elbow had been disarranged. We would not suspect there was something wrong with the bones and ligaments of the elbow.

It would be a mistake for you as an auditor, really, to suppose that some-thing was wrong with the bones and ligaments and meat of the elbow simply because an elbow was sprained or broken.

Now, we've invaded the field of the medical doctor, and we've many times said the medical doctor should be permitted to practice in structure and set bones and so forth. Well sure he should. But not being an electronics man, he has no business, having no concept of the actual structure of energy, such as you have — viewpoint of dimension, anchor points, and so forth — having no idea of basic electronics, he has no darned business, really, shortening or lengthening bones or trying to do something to disarrange the structure of the body.

It's perfectly all right, as long as he tries to put back into existence the body as it was meant to be. But now, if he starts to get experimental, knowing nothing about electronics, boy, is he out of his field!

The only way you can lengthen an arm would be, really, by rearranging the anchor points which demarked the distance and length of the arm. And what do you know, by processing, you ordinarily, routinely do this. By doing what?

We know about black energy masses, right? And this fellow's arm is very short. Well, let's say he's hung up in birth. Here he is, hung up in birth, and he's packing around this huge energy mass. Well, he's got a foreshortened arm. We audit him out of birth, we audit him out of that energy mass, and for the first time, the anchor point can snap into its proper position — and so his arm can grow.

Up to that time, a mass of anchor points — wrong anchor points, the fac-similes of birth, and so forth — were being paid attention to by the arm.

In other words, that was what was making the space of that arm, not the designed anchor points. You audit out birth, that energy goes by the board, the original anchor points can then carry on their process of growth and extension according to their plans, orders and dictates. Do you follow me?

So therefore, a facsimile, being a mass of energy, can attract out of position, these anchor points. There is magnetic interrelationship between the facsimile and the anchor points of the body. So when this fellow has a sprained elbow, the first thing you would think of with regard to this sprained elbow is that the anchor point is out of position.

Now, if he were exteriorized and you'd done all the Route 1 drills to bring him right on up to a line where he could see energy, mock things up, real sharp, real clever — you know, in good shape — all you'd have to do is tell him, "Take a look at the elbow. Do you find any kind of a ball or anything there in the elbow?" He'd say, "Yes, there's a little black ball." You'd say, "Mock up a whole bunch of black balls." He would. "Keep stuffing them into the elbow." All of a sudden he will say, "You know, the little ball has turned gold." Why was it black? That was because the energy was being drained out of it by some other anchor point. You remedied the havingness of that particular anchor point. It got gold.

You say, "All right. Now put it into position." And he would try, and it wouldn't go into position. You'd say, "Well, you know what its proper position is." They do, by the way. That's the mysterious thing — that the thetan knows where the proper positions are.

You say, "Mock up a gold ball in the proper position and throw it away; and another one and throw it away; and another one and throw it away." You've got an energy suction going where that anchor point belongs. It's being repelled out of its proper position.

You remedy the havingness of the position. First, remedy the havingness of energy in the area, then remedy the havingness of position of the anchor point, and then have him shove the body's anchor point back into the proper position, click — no sprain, no break. This is fabulous. It's what makes the body's structure exist.

Now, very often you'll find an anchor point just shot to pieces, completely shattered. This fellow is having an awful lot of trouble with the right side of his body; we find out this wing anchor point, which is way out here in front of him and so forth, is shattered.

Have him collect the pieces — they're still around. Have him mock up the havingness of the area. Have him discharge out of it, in other words, the facsimiles that are being held on to in the area, simply by remedying the havingness. Have him pour black balls, gold balls, whatever you want, into the area where that shattered anchor point is. He will tell you.

You say, "Look around. Do you see any black balls? Any gold balls? Any-thing like that?"

"Yes, I do. Well, there's one lying there in pieces." You say, "Okay. Remedy the havingness of the area it belongs in. Put the pieces together. The position it should be in — push it into place." It'll go click, and all of a sudden this person's physical imbalance will vanish.

Now, where are these anchor points? There's a whole gold sheen of them underneath each eye. People who have dark hollows under their eyes ordinarily have had these anchor points badly shattered and have never gone on and remedied the havingness of the area and put them all into place again.

There are anchor points, as I said, at each bend. At each point in the body where you have an arterial pass, and so forth, you generally have some anchor points sitting around there demarking the area where it should be, there. In the eyes themselves, there's one in each corner of the eye — the principal anchor points.

Once in a while you process somebody, you get piercing pains in each corner of each eye, and, ooh! he won't like that. What you've done is simply suck the energy out of the existing anchor point in the area, you see, temporarily, and this — it hurt.

Now, we sometimes see a misalignment of structure or a loss of beauty on a face or a body — it always has something to do with anchor points.

Now, you can get a body into a position of no return. It's been banged around so much, it's been in so many accidents, it's been shot so often, and so on, that all the thetan can do is simply string these anchor points together as good as he can and keep them in position.

Why? Because the body does not operate on the anchor point mocked up in the position by the thetan; the body only operates on its own anchor points.

A thetan cannot, for some reason or other, come along and put an anchor point in the position. I don't lay this down as a rule that can't be thrown aside, but so far all experiments have demonstrated that this is the rule: The body has to have its own anchor points to have its own space.

And when the thetan comes along and slides in a mock-up anchor point in position for the body's anchor point, he may be very happy about it, it may be a much brighter anchor point, but it will give the person aches, pains and so on.

I've had somebody adjust all the anchor points in his head and had him get piercing headaches, and find out: "What were you doing?" And "Well, huh, my anchor points, you see, are much brighter than the body's anchor points, and so I just left them in position." And I made him go through, then, the head, and pick out all those anchor points which he himself put in and patch up the body's anchor points any old way he could, and shove them back into position, and the fellow was suddenly rid of his headache again.

In other words, as you run this process, there is one bug — that is, the thetan mustn't put in anchor points of his own. He can mock up anchor points in the position to remedy the havingness, but when he finally puts the structure back again, make sure he uses the body's own anchor points. Got that?

What is this pattern? It is a tremendously complex pattern of space, and that's what it is. It makes a man look something like a Tinkertoy, all put together on rods and gold balls.

But that is the true structure of the body, and the structure of the body which can be changed easily by the auditor. He exteriorizes somebody and then, after he's done all the rest of the Route is right up to this point of remedying these anchor points, he has this person adjust the anchor points of the body.

How does he do it? I have already told you and it's given to you in The Auditor's Handbook.
